Holiday Break
During the holiday break we hosted our annual New Years bash. This year it was Shawn, Delena, Todd, and Julia. Shawn K. and his new girlfriend Violet. She is lovely! We also had Shaye join us.
The kids loved the balloon drop, and are now at a point that they look forward to it.
We watched the Netflix New Years count down around 10 pm and then took about an hour to get the kids to bed. The evening went on with games until 5 am or somewhere around there.
The next day was low key even though the kids were up super early at just before 7 am. Yes, you read that right, I think I got two hours of sleep.
There were a few days of rain which allowed for fun with new Christmas presents.
We took the kids skating at the Tim Horton's free skate day. There was also a brand new 3D printing demonstration at the library where the kids made a rock-topus. An octopus with his fingers up like a rockstar.
We took the kids skiing at Dagmar. The kids were amazing on the slopes! They were able to really apply their skating skills. We started on the carpet and worked our way up to the quad chair lift. Even Easton went on the quad chair lift with us. All green hills.
I was so proud of them!
I finished off the break with a girls night out with Patti and Annie.
The break was wonderful. After one day back the next day was a snow day. So maybe now we are back to routine???
